Quote:9. Hell.meh
Quote:8. There is a real evil spirit named Satan or Lucifer and he wants your soul!For what purpose?
All satan wants is to oppose God
Quote:7. Prophets foretold the coming of the Messiah and King Jesus!Hence the term 'prophet.'
Quote:6. God impregnated a young virgin. And that was after his "angel" Gabriel told her in a vision.What are you saying it would be better for her not to know?
Quote:5. God is one Being but three Persons. It's just too "mysterious" for stupid people to understand... like us Christians.It's REALLY Simple cupcake. God is a title and not a name. As in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Three entities Father, Son ,Holy Spirit. One shared title of God.
Quote:4. God rose himself from the dead...and then floated into the sky 40 days later, before anyone outside of his devoted inner circle had a chance to see him.Again not a biblical precept. Christ appeared to huge crowds/hundreds of people.
Quote:3. God is the world's most successful author; he wrote a total of sixty-six books and his career lasted approximately 1,400 B.C.-100 A.D. (according to Christians)! Incredible longevity!Don't see a problem here.
Quote:2. God created a Universe, the observable portion being at least 539,400,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles across, 13.8 billion years ago, so that through your 9-10 decades on Earth (if you're very lucky), you could be born into sin but acquire the free gift of salvation, per his mercy, and be granted an eternity of life side by side with him in heaven---by believing in a story he wrote down by manipulating the hands of Greek-speaking Jews 2,000 years ago.What the problem is?
Quote:And the winner is....As so many of you have said, if Christ rose from the grave where is the sacrifice?
1. God requires human sacrifice to repay evil and Jesus' virgin blood was just the ingredient that holy justice demanded.
